A questionnaire‐based nationwide survey covering aquaculture farms ( n = 2936) producing carps, tilapia, pangasius and rainbow trout in freshwater and shrimp in brackishw...

Comparative estimates of trophic status and energy flow were carried out in a tropical reservoir ecosystem in India to assess the impact of fish stocking. Mass‐balanced models of the reservoir ecosystem were constructed for two periods – 1982–1983 and 2002–2003 – using ecopath software to determine the impacts on different groups before and after stocking. Mixed trophic impact ( MTI ) analyses indicated that phytoplankton and...
